Each teams best dish can be put forward to earn bonus points.
Exercise – Members are Challenged each week to Complete 3 x 30 mins or 5 x 30 mins of exercise over 7 days. As part of this exercise they also must complete the exercise focus we set. For example members must complete a boxing session as part of their 3 or 5 weekly sessions.
Building Healthy Habits – Members receive points for tracking their food, exercise and water each week. Through their own members area they can set goals and targets and earn badges as they progress through their journey.
